Police piece together Steven stabbing
Investigators are believed to have arrive to the conclusion the incident did not entail self-hurt or a random attack.
But with Steven unwilling to tell law enforcement accurately what occurred, costs are unlikely.
The AFL’s integrity workforce will discuss to Steven, 30, about the instances of the stabbing.
Geelong said Steven was “very lucky” immediately after surviving a wound to the right side of his physique.
The AFL is involved about the incident that led to Steven admitting himself to medical center at 1am on Sunday.
The Herald Sunlight understands the league’s aim will be on finding clarity about the guide-up to the stabbing.

Fairly than a official investigation, the AFL is eager to help Steven, who has fought severe mental-wellness battles in the past.
His mom and dad frequented the previous St Kilda player at the Alfred Healthcare facility on Monday. He is envisioned to be launched this 7 days.
As Geelong resumed teaching, head of football Simon Lloyd said it was also early to take into account his return to the club.
“Obviously it’s becoming investigated by the law enforcement at the moment, so we have got to be quite watchful not to speculate and make assumptions,” he said. “The aim is on wellness and help for Jack.
“Our clinical workforce have spoken to the trauma health professionals at the Alfred and in which he received the personal injury was beneath the right thoracic, so in his chest.”
Geelong believed Steven to be in fantastic form around the pre-period, and mates said he was brimming with positivity prior to the period shutdown.
“Jack’s quite lucky as we discuss,” Lloyd said.
“He’s recovering, he does not call for any further operation or exploratory surgical procedure, so which is a real positive in what is not wonderful instances.
We’re not even contemplating about (him returning to the club) at this point in time. We just actually will need to aim on his wellness and wellbeing.
“Jack will come from a quite tight knit family, he has his mum and father all over him at the moment, he has his husband or wife and his siblings as well.
“There’s a ton of enjoy, care and help for him.”
